I just have no time for proper feedback here, and the rest of the week looks just as bad, but I loved this chapter, Sara. I loved Clark waking up, wondering and doubting about him and Lois, and Lois's not very wordy but extremly eloquent assurance that she is not going anywhere, and then Clark's so poignant "I'm back" comment. I take it he means that now that Lois will stay with him, he is back to what he was when he was a child, when he was so hopeful, before death and loss had touched him.

And I loved it that Elle would blush so hotly when she insisted that she was not "involved" with Henderson's agent! goofy
